“My Stupid Mouth” details a date gone horribly wrong, when Mayer said something that his date took offense of and possibly ruined his chances of a relationship with her. He knows he’s in the wrong and is hoping that she can forgive him for this moment.
An acoustic version was first included on John Mayer’s debut EP, Inside Wants Out. It was later re-recorded with a full band for Mayer’s 2001 full-length debut album Room for Squares.
